LOL!
It looks like the parcel is moving along very fast! I refreshed the page and it looked like it had been passed 2 or more times...

I've been wondering about the way the parcel is passed....
So, the formula is 2^n right? What decides the value of n? Is it decided before the parcel can be passed, or is it affected by the number of passes?
Also, does the number of passes/the value of "n" reset at the end of monday, or are they carried over to the next monday?

Well, I got back to home yesturday :)
I was the winner of the monday's parcel, and I received finally the parcel's content :) Thanks XMOS.
Everything is ok, and extremely well packaged.
Just as a notice, Sparkfun sent the solder station but didn't took into account that I live in France, so we have 230V instead of 110V. While the power cord is not a pb (can be changed), the solder station has really a true 110V transformer, so impossible to use it out of the box. Hopefully I have a 220v<>110V adapter.
Will be trying this thing next weekend :)
Thanks Jason and thanks to XMOS Team !

I received my DSO Nano V2 a couple of days ago!
A great little scope especially once you have installed the BenF firmware upgrade. I won’t be throwing away my bench scope (150Mhz, 5GSps, 4 Chan) but the Nano will be a great addition to my tool bag.
Many thanks to Jason & XMOS for putting up these parcels!
